abstract: 'HIV-infected people with low socioeconomic status (SES) and people who
are members of a racial or ethnic minority have been found to receive
fewer services, including treatment with Highly Active Antiretroviral
Therapy (HAART), than others. We examined whether these groups also have
worse survival than others and the degree to which service use and
antiretroviral medications explain these disparities in a prospective
cohort study of a national probability sample of 2,864 adults receiving
HIV care. The independent variables were wealth (net accumulated
financial assets), annual income, educational attainment, employment
status (currently working or not working), race/ethnicity, insurance
status, use of services, and use of medications at baseline. The main
outcome variable was death between January 1996 and December 2000. The
analysis was descriptive and multivariate adjusted Cox proportional
hazards regression analysis of survival.
By December 2000, 20\% (13\% from HIV, 7\% non-HIV causes) of the sample
had died. Those with no accumulated financial assets had an 89\% greater
risk of death (RR= 1.89, 95\% CI= 1.15-3.13) and those with less than a
high school education had a 53\% greater risk of death (RR= 1.53, 95\%
CI= 1.15-2.04) than their counterparts, after adjusting for
sociodemographic and clinical variables only. Further adjusting for use
of services and antiretroviral treatment diminished, but did not
eliminate, the elevated relative risk of death for those with low SES by
three of the four measures. The finding of markedly elevated relative
risks of death for those with HIV infection and low SES is of particular
concern given the disproportionate rates of HIV infection in these
groups. Effective interventions are needed to improve outcomes for low
SES groups with HIV infection.'
